“The first rifle I ever owned was a Stevens. The new Stevens .35 
High Power I have tried and found first rate. Balanced to perfection, low in 
the hammer, just right in width to carry in the scabbard and set nifty under 
the left leg when in the saddle, easy to load. The magazine that holds five 
shells and with one in the chamber provides enough for anyone; sights that are 
standard and used by all the best shooters, a slightly swelled fore-end that fits the 
hand, side ejection; solid steel receiver; as accurate as any of the Stevens famous 
rifles. Hammer always in sight and ‘sweet’ to the touch, a perfect coil 
mainspring that does its work always and positively—these as well as other 
features which I have not space to call attention to, are the features which caused 
me to place this rifle at the head of the many striving for all round honors.” 
That’s what one of the greatest BIG GAME Hunters in the world wrote to us a few days ago.

Are You A Gunner? 
Do you love to follow your good dog over the fields in search of quail or chickens, or to struggle 
through swamp or along thick grown hillside, expecting to hear the roar of the ruffed grouse or 
the twitter of the fall woodcock ? If so, you should have this new book. 
AMERICAN GAME BIRD SHOOTING 
By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL 
This companion volume to “American Duck Shooting” treats of the upland game which American 
sportsmen shoot over dogs—wocdco '.k, snipe, all the quail, grouse and turkeys. 
The first part of the volume is devoted to a description of the various species and their habits—the 
way in which they live their lives. 
The second part of the book is devoted to upland shooting and treats of the methods by which all the 
upland birds are pursued and taken. The chapter “Aids to Shooting” describes the clothing, guns, 
and loads and dogs that the gunner may profitably use; while the last section of the book treats of the 
shooting of the future and the efforts to rear our native quail and grouse in domestication. 
The volume is illustrated by colored plates of ruffed grouse and quail, and 48 full page portraits of 
different game birds and hunting scenes, with a number of cuts in the text. 
Cloth. About 575 pages. Price $3.50, net. Postage 25 cents. 
This book is cf inestimable value. It contains the genuine hunter- 
naturalist facts given in the most entertaining and interesting style.
